The room is wet and smells bad. The tap of the bathroom is like a water gun or jet. It’s hurtful and you even couldn’t wash and brush teeth.

Bad service but can improve
We were booked in a room with flooded toilet, we notified the reception immediately and they gave a another room. In the new room we had no WiFi, towels, tea/coffee/milk was missing, 1 extra blanket - still we complained. All we got was promises and no action. The next day my wife made several calls to the reception and still they were working on their promises. Breakfast is a buffet but we had to ask for more food to be braught in the kitchen. The dining area is full of spiderwebs on the ceiling. I went to the reception to ask to speak to the manager. I was told he was not around. And promised to fix the problem later. We went out and came back at 21h00 only to be told that they were taking us to another room that have a WiFi. Toilet door doesn't close, shower partition is broken, water is spilling on the floor when one showers, toilet flush is very noisy. When we check out we were told we owe breakfast, which we paid everything in full when we check in. So in 2 nights we had 3 rooms from the hotel.
Spiderwebs in the dining hall

I enjoyed my stay. Along N1 with a high traffic volume but you will not hear a sound from your room. Calm and away from the city.

High-up Marriott Polokwane Landmark
The hotel service and state was excellent however it was difficult accessing the hotel from the north I think is due to invisible/unclear signs and the was noise from speed humps from the free way mainly due to road construction.

Great Hotel Poor Location
The rooms are clean and the service was great. However, the location of this hotel next to the N1 makes it extremely noisy especially for the guest staying in rooms directly facing this busy national road. For example, I had to ask to be relocated from Room 162 to 127 due to the noise of the vehicles the previous night. I would suggest the construction of a high double hall along the N1 to try and reduce the noise of the passing vehicles.
